I agree that the service can be / feels slow on the ELL core. Is good time keeping along the route important? Instead of having faster journeys when possible with more recovery time at the ends. Very much so, of the 4 southern routes only the single stop branch to New Cross doesn't have to fit in with other services. Good timekeeping is also important when each branch only has a 4tph service - it's only between Highbury & Islington and Surrey Quays that it's truly a "turn up and go" service. |
